Here in the Fancher family we are a pretty big fan of the famous Korean, Yoosung Lee. I first found this video of Yoosung playing cello with Imogen Heap.

We then met Yoosung through mutual close friends, I invited him to come play cello on my live recording that I did with a band on New Year’s Eve. He flew up to North Carolina from Florida, and we had such a fantastic time with him. Really amazing guy!

Yoosung is on his way to move to Washington, DC. He stopped and stayed with us for a night. We all had a grand chicken curry meal and caught up on life. This afternoon before he left, I wanted to photograph him with his cello. We went through high grass in the high heat of the afternoon. We both poured sweat and for about 35 minutes, Yoosung let me photograph him. (Such a good sport!)

Side note: I’m so in love with the cello, and I hope someday over the rainbow I can learn.

Here is Yoosung and his lovely cello “Bertha”.

the one above is my favorite.

Lovin’ on Bertha!
